Tenner Challenge Launch

Last week saw the launch of The Young Enterprise ‘Tenner Challenge’. We have never launched this in D&T before but I gave the students an introduction in Year 7 Assembly - the turnout was incredible!!! Almost 60 students kept knocking on my door asking if they could join in. At one point I just stood back and watched them all eagerly planning their business ideas - just amazing... ☺️

A group of friends and I have set up a social enterprise to raise to awareness for vulnerable women in our local community (Bristol). We aim to educate people about the severity of the issues many women face daily.

We sell silver plated, handmade bracelets with a choice of four charms; each symbolising a different way we can help women. All of the profits we make will be used to raise awareness of the women who face problems including discrimination, homelessness and domestic abuse. We hope to do this through events such as self defence sessions, educational speeches and food banks.

If you’d like to support us, the bracelets are available on our website: http://jesuisfille.bigcartel.com Our spring bracelets are £6 each or 2 for £10

FREE DELIVERY in the UK ✨

Our team were fortunate enough to come second in the regional finals as well as receiving a cash prize which will allow us to grow the business and, more importantly, the concept behind it.

Share Holders Report - March 2016

Made in Yorkshire made a very promising start to Young Enterprise. We experienced huge success when launching our first product range of candles at Kelham Island trade fair and Wakefield trade fair, selling 100% of stock at both events. We built on our achievements, utilising new found knowledge from market research to chose new scents for our candles to reflect the next season that also displayed variety to appeal to everyone. We have learnt that teamwork is crucial to success. We set out clear roles early on so we could communicate and work more effectively, and therefore, maximise impact. We quickly realised from initial market research that high quality, environmentally friendly products will sell more. Therefore, we have ensured that we keep our products to a high standard, consequently selling our products at a price that maximises sales and also profit. We have discovered that location and timing is influential to improving sales performance. We have also learnt that clear financial visibility allows effective decision making. We anticipate continued profitable trading throughout the rest of the trading year. We hope to expand our product range with a cookbook including traditional Yorkshire recipes and more Yorkshire inspired scents for candles to allow us to spread the Yorkshire joy even further.
